1
Jesus lives! thy terrors now
Can, O death, no more appal us;
Jesus lives! by this we know
Thou, O grave, canst not enthral us.
Hallelujah!
2
Jesus lives! henceforth is death
But the gate of life immortal;
This will calm our trembling breath,
When we pass its gloomy portal.
Hallelujah!
3
Jesus lives! for us He died;
Then, alone to Jesus living,
Pure in heart may we abide,
Glory to our Saviour giving.
Hallelujah!
4
Jesus lives! our hearts know well
Naught from us His love will sever;
Life nor death nor powers of hell
Tear us from His keeping ever.
Hallelujah!
5
Jesus lives! to Him the throne
Over all the world is given;
May we go where He is gone,
Rest and reign with Him in heaven.
Hallelujah!
